Holly’s office was such a unique take on a workspace to incorporate her boys and her work! You know I love adding the perfect final touches so I thought it’d be fun to walk you through how I went about doing an easy DIY gallery wall with Desenio and some DIY’s you can do to customize your office space. I know the lay out on the accent wall is unique but we wanted to do something different xx.

    Freaking GORG!! 😍😍😍

    I’m sorry I know this is random and don’t take it personally, but I really wished you and other youtubers made an effort towards the music you choose. It’s like there’s a selection of 10 songs that everybody has been using for the past 5 years and recently it’s been driving me a little crazy (maybe because I watch youtube a lot with the quarantine haha) but anyway, just to say that it kind of switches the attention from the actual video…

    😍😍😍

    Wanted to give you a heads up! The beginning part of this video is me picking out my prints with Desenio and curating Holly’s gallery wall on top of the geometric accent wall we did last week. The actual DIY’s start at 4:37 ! I also timestamped the individual DIY’s in the description box for quick reference as well as linking everything for you guys that I used! Thank you for all the love on this transformation. I hope you can implement some of this DIY’s into your home office xx.

  7. James Olafsson on January 28, 2021 at 9:34 pm

    WoW ! Nice idea ! I tried https://www.amazon.com/bluekeyworld Cable Clips and it helped my organization

  8. Fatima Hernandez on January 28, 2021 at 9:36 pm

    Love it!

  9. Aldrin Luigi Perez on January 28, 2021 at 9:37 pm

  10. R B on January 28, 2021 at 9:38 pm

    RACHEL !! I couldn’t find the video where you talked about wood shrinking . Do you wait for the wood to dry before of after the cuts ? Both ? 😩

  11. DezaréxMichelle on January 28, 2021 at 9:41 pm

    What laser level do you use?

  12. dwynn57 on January 28, 2021 at 9:41 pm

    luv ya gurl! you wouldn’t be human if you didn’t have a few mishaps! I would personally never have thought of using a drop cloth for art! learn something new everyday! thanks for sharing! xoxo

  13. Joan Snow on January 28, 2021 at 9:42 pm

  14. Lynda Reith on January 28, 2021 at 9:42 pm

  15. Yannick Ries on January 28, 2021 at 9:42 pm

    Rachel you are a true inspiration ! I watched every single one of your videos, got myself a bunch of power tools and made several projects this week ! Everything is my first time ! HomeDepot is my second home now 😝 ! Built a shiplap wall with plywood boards and whitewashed it for my bedroom, another half shiplap wall for my bathroom, built other stuff and today your easy shelf for behind my couch ! Thanks girl !

  16. Stephanie on January 28, 2021 at 9:44 pm

    As always, love love love everything! I would’ve really liked to see her reaction to the completed room 😍

  20. Zara Zen on January 28, 2021 at 9:52 pm

    Man.. This looks freaking amazing!

  21. trick351 on January 28, 2021 at 9:54 pm

    PREACH girl about those prints and frames!! I’d rather dive head first into a wood chipper than get beat up from all of those crazy women fighting for those chipped busted ass frames at Hobby Lobby 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ 🦇💩🤪

  22. Olga Ortiz on January 28, 2021 at 9:54 pm

    FABULAS

  23. Veronica Bone on January 28, 2021 at 9:55 pm

    Love the drop cloth frame idea. The gallery wall looks fantastic. Corkboard wall is unique. I probably would not change it. You did a great job. So inspiring.

  24. Elin Hagemann on January 28, 2021 at 9:56 pm

    Love your channel Rachel – love your ideas, practical advice and that you’re so open and honest about everything! You’re truly inspirational!
    I am literally #bingewatching every single episode and have earmarked a few projects that I would like to try ( so sorry if comments are months old 🙂 )

    Keep going girl – you’re amazing! O, and the sheer love an unquestionable respect you have and show for your parents is truly admirable!
    Love from sunny South Africa xx

  25. uwu on January 28, 2021 at 9:57 pm

    Omg Love this! Thank you 🙂

  26. Maybee Designs on January 28, 2021 at 9:59 pm

    I love the cork board! I am an oil painter and use the glass from old picture frames as my palette, then once its been used a while I have a little abstract art piece by adding the frame back!

  27. cecilia g on January 28, 2021 at 10:00 pm

    omg! those prints are gorgeous! cant wait to look for some when i get a little more money

  28. Lanlicious N on January 28, 2021 at 10:00 pm

  31. MsSassyMT on January 28, 2021 at 10:04 pm

    Love love love everything about this video.

  35. Marie Round on January 28, 2021 at 10:08 pm

    Love your work Rachel

  36. Debbie Weinstein on January 28, 2021 at 10:09 pm

    Agree with @StaceyArmstrong, I love that the spaces for each day of the week are not exact, because who has exactly the same day each week? Sometimes Sunday just needs a little more room…. 🙂

  37. Jemma J on January 28, 2021 at 10:10 pm

    Wonderful honestly, i dont even know why i like the blue walls so much 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

  38. Sincerely Eccentric on January 28, 2021 at 10:10 pm

    I don’t see why such simple prints cost soo much money on Desenio. I think you can DIY alot of those prints and find frames at the thirst store.

  39. Kate Fry on January 28, 2021 at 10:15 pm

    Love the accent wall girlie. Also love the cork board calendar. It’s not perfect but I think it gives it an intentional look.

  40. Paula Lusk on January 28, 2021 at 10:17 pm

    Just loved the drop cloth framed. This room looks really nice. Great job!

  41. Cenica Edwards on January 28, 2021 at 10:18 pm

    Wowwww!!! I love what you did to this office space.
    Everything about it showed serious progress, including the mess ups.
    But the one thing I’ve learned about those is….
    ‘Mistakes (or mess ups) are the proof that shows you are trying,
    And they only become failures if you quit.’
    From the looks of this finished product,
    You are a true master at your craft.
    Thank you very much for sharing this incredible project.
    I truly enjoyed it. Can’t wait to see what you have coming up next.

  42. laurenxelise on January 28, 2021 at 10:19 pm

    I was loving this, but didn’t expect to get so suddenly emotional 4 minutes in. I’ve never had a close relationship with my dad, and it’s always been a huge hole in my life and trauma in my childhood. Especially in such times like this, it would be really nice to be able to call my dad and have him tell me it’s okay and that he loves me. But I’ll never ever get to know what having a supportive and loving father feels like, and since we only get one life, that always feels so painful.

  43. Keli Howard on January 28, 2021 at 10:19 pm

  44. Nina S on January 28, 2021 at 10:20 pm

    I think the cork board is fine..shows character! Great color for the space!

  45. Rosie DeLibero on January 28, 2021 at 10:20 pm

    Thanks so much for another great video! 😀 My husband and I started watching your videos for inspiration when we started our powder room remodel (DIY style). It’s not done yet ’cause of the lockdown but when it’s finished I’ll be sure Insta tag you because honestly, not sure we would’ve had the confidence to tackle the bathroom remodel without first watching your videos. We now constantly say, "I’m pulling a Rachel!" when we measure something 20 times before we make the cut – or – "F**k it, I’m Racheling this!" (haha) when we put something in wrong and try again. All of our "Rachel" references are positive, of course! Your honesty is refreshing and inspiring, especially to those of us are who are also learning as we go. Again, thank YOU! 😀

  46. pippylunalove on January 28, 2021 at 10:20 pm

    At a quilt show someone had made a modern quilt fully out of old drop cloths. It looked really cool. That was also expensive but it was a handmade king-size quilt.

  47. PINK MEANS GO! on January 28, 2021 at 10:22 pm

    OMG yes !!!

  48. Kathryn P on January 28, 2021 at 10:25 pm

    Love the gallery wall with the mirror, will try that 🌸

  49. livbythesea on January 28, 2021 at 10:25 pm

    I’ve been waiting for a new video! Yay!!
